Chapter 539: Zhao Zihuan's Secret
Chapter 539: Zhao Zihuan's Secret
Upon witnessing Zhao Zihuan's Nine Hells Inferno Mastiff undergo a minor mutation and successfully break free from its constraints to advance to the Legendary rank, Li Qian was delighted.
He was genuinely happy for Zhao Zihuan.
Within a short time, a Beastmaster had advanced from the Sacred Spirit Peak to become a big shot with two Legendary Companion Beasts. It was foreseeable that Zhao Zihuan's life would undergo earth-shattering changes.
Along with this, the status of the Cloudwave Beastmaster Academy also transformed.
Even without considering entering the ranks just below the Eight Great Academies, taking several steps forward should be no issue.
Just as Li Qian's thoughts were in a bit of disarray, the mutated Nine Hells Inferno Mastiff underwent another change.
A flash of light later, the Nine Hells Inferno Mastiff had disappeared without a trace.
In its place stood a woman!
An extremely beautiful and enchanting woman.
She was about one meter and seventy centimeters tall, with short, sleek black hair. Her eyes and eyebrows were a vibrant fire-red, and her figure was explosively alluring, with curves in all the right places.
Just in terms of appearance, she seemed to surpass Irina by a small margin.
Clearly, she was the transformed Nine Hells Inferno Mastiff.
"Master, take a look. Do you like how I look now?" The Nine Hells Inferno Mastiff walked up to Zhao Zihuan and asked.
"Cough, cough, cough..." Zhao Zihuan began to cough uncontrollably.
The Nine Hells Inferno Mastiff had just transformed and was obviously not yet adept at reading the situation. Thinking that Zhao Zihuan didn't like her appearance, she asked in confusion, "What's wrong? Master, don't you like it? I clearly transformed into the image you desired..."
"Huh? Why does the transformed Nine Hells Inferno Mastiff look so much like Instructor Shi Qingshuang from the Combat Academy of Cloudwave Beastmaster Academy?" At this moment, Mu Tianhua's expression turned into one of sudden realization, and she spoke up.
"She does look quite similar!"
"I recall that Instructor Shi Qingshuang is already married, isn't she?"
"Her husband is the Executive Vice-Chancellor of Cloudwave Beastmaster Academy!"
"..."
The Beastmasters who knew Instructor Shi Qingshuang began to discuss the matter.
Upon hearing this, Li Qian, eager to hear the juicy details, immediately perked up.
Just a moment ago, Zhao Zihuan had been proudly boasting about the Nine Hells Inferno Mastiff's advancement to the Legendary rank, but now he was instantly embarrassed in front of everyone.
The secret he had hidden deep in his heart was inadvertently revealed by the Nine Hells Inferno Mastiff's innocent question.
At this moment, all the high-ranking Beastmasters who usually looked down on others became a source of amusement.
Although they didn't continue the discussion, their gazes towards Zhao Zihuan were filled with mockery.
Even with Zhao Zihuan's thick-skinned self-proclamation, he couldn't help but feel embarrassed. His face instantly turned as red as a monkey's bottom.
Facing the peculiar gazes of the high-ranking Beastmasters, he quickly spoke up, changing the topic, "Well, since the Legendary-rank beast has been sent back, let's make good use of our time and discuss how we should handle this Dimensional Rift."
Seeing that Zhao Zihuan had brought up a serious matter, the high-ranking Beastmasters followed his lead and stopped teasing him. They began to discuss the issue at hand.
Of course, the most important thing was that they all understood that in the future, if their Companion Beasts wanted to break through to the Legendary rank, they would need the help of the Golden Banyan Ancestor. They couldn't mock Zhao Zihuan too much.
What if this old man sought revenge later?
As Li Qian saw the high-ranking Beastmasters start discussing serious matters, he quietly withdrew without interrupting them.
Just as he stepped out of the range of the original array, a voice suddenly rang out, stopping him.
"Li Qian, thank you for your help this time.
Mu Tianhua and Mu Tianyue, the two highest authorities of the Mu Clan, approached with a calm and unhurried demeanor.
It was evident from their faces that they were filled with obvious joy.
Li Qian, upon seeing this, spoke with a puzzled tone, "There's no need to thank me. In fact, it's you who should be thanked. If it weren't for your dedication and sacrifice..."
"Ancestor Cypress is our Mu Clan's guardian beast," Mu Tianhua interrupted, knowing what Li Qian wanted to say, "For so many years, he has diligently guarded the Sennen Mystic Realm, making sacrifices for our clan."
"In the end, he broke free from his shackles and advanced to the Legendary Rank, and we're happy for him too."
"This is the best outcome for him."
"But he's now Chancellor Zhao's Contract Companion Beast..." Li Qian shook his head, offering a reminder.
Mu Tianyue smiled at Li Qian, "Indeed, he has become Chancellor Zhao's Contract Companion Beast, but regardless of who he forms a contract with, as long as the other party advances to the Legendary Rank, it will undoubtedly bring more benefits than drawbacks to the Mu Clan."
Upon hearing Mu Tianyue's words, Li Qian's face revealed a moment of realization.
He wasn't foolish; after listening to Mu Tianyue, he quickly understood that even if Ancestor Cypress formed a contract with Zhao Zihuan, as long as the latter advanced to the Legendary Rank, it would be advantageous for the Mu Clan.
W
After all, the favor Zhao Zihuan had accepted was genuine.
Moreover, Li Qian believed that Mu Tianhua and Mu Tianyue, the Mu Clan's leaders, had come to him at this time not solely for the matter of Ancestor Cypress.
As Li Qian suspected, not long after they chatted for a while, Mu Tianhua brought up another matter.
"Li Qian, I wonder if the evolution method of the Nine Dragon Fushang Tree can be replicated?" Mu Tianhua asked with an expectant gaze.
Li Qian understood his anticipation, as this matter was crucial for his chance to advance to the Legendary Rank.
After giving Mu Tianhua and Mu Tianyue a deep look, Li Qian nodded and replied affirmatively, "It's possible..."
Before he could finish his sentence, the two elders' faces lit up with ecstatic expressions.
Seeing this, Li Qian quickly spoke up, continuing to remind them, "However, evolution has a significant failure rate, and the conditions are quite demanding. Even with the Mu Clan's resources, I don't think you can gather all the necessary materials for evolution."
"That's only natural..." Mu Tianhua responded nonchalantly, "The evolution method of a Legendary Companion Beast should never have a hundred percent success rate; it's normal to have a failure probability!"
"As for the resources required for evolution, our Mu Clan will do our utmost to prepare them. We'll just need to trouble you, Li Qian, when the time comes..."
Mu Tianhua didn't finish his sentence, but his words were clear.
Li Qian had a favorable impression of the Mu Clan, and with Mu Qianqian's connection, he also needed to expand his network. So, without hesitation, he agreed, "It's possible. Once the time is right, I'll come to assist you with the evolution of the Nine Dragon Fushang Tree. As for the required resources, I'll make a list later and send it to you personally, Mu Tianhua..."
"Good, wonderful!" Mu Tianhua and Mu Tianyue exchanged a glance, their eyes brimming with joy that couldn't be contained.
